That wouldn't necessarily mean that Wingblade can't be in the special 30 line-up.

Windblade is number 30 in the thrilling thirty figures as stated in this press release. The specific paragraph is quoted below.

In addition to the first items being revealed, Hasbro announced the result of the first “Fan Built Bot Poll." Hosted earlier in the year, the poll asked fans around the world to vote on a series of TRANSFORMERS character elements such as faction, personality, vehicle mode and more. Hasbro combined all of the winning elements and unveiled the newest character to be incorporated into TRANSFORMERS lore and will be made into an action figure, part of the “Thrilling 30” line of numbered figures. The character is WINDBLADE, a female AUTOBOT jet who will appear in the “Thrilling 30” numbered line. The WINDBLADE character will make an appearance in future IDW comics as a lasting part of TRANSFORMERS lore with the opportunity to appear in additional brand expressions in the future. The WINDBLADE character action figure will be #30 in the “Thrilling 30” line and becomes available in late 2014.

If a Construct-Bot and that atrocious FE OP are on the list, then clearly the "Thrilling 30" designation is purely arbitrary. I think they took a list of upcoming figures and threw 30 darts at it to choose the "Thrilling 30". There's nothing else that unites these figures, and nothing special about most of them.

If you guys haven't listed her yet, Generations Windblade is the thirtieth entry.

Hopefully as we progress through the year, we'll see some special stuff.

I think "Thrilling 30" is more of a price point at this... point.Talking is hard
